Long time West Seattle residents Myland and Betty Streck will celebrate their 65th wedding anniversary on New Years Eve. They were married in Betty’s parents home in the University District on December 31, 1946.

The couple lived on a house boat on Lake Union for a short time before settling at Fort Lawton during their first year of marriage. They then moved to Beacon Hill, where they purchased their first home.

In 1955 they moved to West Seattle where they raised their four sons on the corner of Walnut and Hinds. They sold the home in 2004 and moved to a condo in the West Seattle Junction area, where they happily reside.

Myland and Betty plan on celebrating a quiet evening at home with family and friends. Please join us in congratulating them for their long-term commitment and the love they share for each other.
